In these cases, the display shows a message and -
for versions/markets, where provided - the symbol
flashes on the display.
If climate comfort is to be favoured, the
Start&Stop system can be disabled,
for a continuous operation of the
climate control system.
ENGINE RESTARTING CONDITIONS
For reasons of comfort, limiting harmful emissions
and safety purposes, the power unit can restart
automatically without any action on behalf of the
driver if certain conditions are met, including:
❒ battery not sufficiently charged;
❒ windscreen wipers working at maximum speed;
❒ reduced braking system vacuum (e.g. if the
brake pedal is pressed repeatedly);
❒ car moving (e.g. when driving on roads with a
gradient);
❒ engine stopping by Start&Stop system for over
3 minutes;
❒ for versions equipped with automatic climate
control (for versions/markets where provided),
to enable suitable thermal comfort or with
MAX-DEF activation.
With gear engaged, automatic engine restarting is
possible only by fully depressing the clutch pedal.
The driver is informed by the displaying of a
message on the display and - for versions/markets,
where provided - by the flashing of the symbol
.
Notes
If the clutch is not pressed, 3 minutes after the
engine stops, the engine can be restarted only
using the ignition key.
In cases when the engine stops and this is not
desired, due for example to the clutch pedal being
released sharply with a gear engaged, if the
Start&Stop system is activated, the engine can be
restarted by fully depressing the clutch pedal or
by placing the gear lever in neutral.
SAFETY FUNCTIONS
When the engine is stopped by the Start&Stop
system, if the driver releases his/her seat belt and
opens the driver's or passenger's door, the engine
can be restarted only using the ignition key.
The driver is informed by a buzzer and by the
flashing of the symbol
on the display; on some
versions, a message is displayed as well.
